Dave Chappelle Sued By Man Who Threw a Banana Peel at Him

Dave Chappelle can't catch a break. First, he has a banana peel thrown at him during a 2015 show in Santa Fe, New Mexico, and now he's being sued by the guy who did it.

Christian Englander, in a lawsuit filed Friday, claims he hurled said banana peel at the comedian after something he said in his routine offended him. He insists there were no racist motivations, despite what some TMZ staffers said at the time.

Thanks for watching!

But Englander is claiming to be the victim here because Chappelle's bodyguard struck him twice afterwards. Sounds like he had it coming...

Englander faced charged of "battery and disturbing the peace," according to Fox News, but Chappelle didn't give a shit and dropped them. He even worked the bit into his act.
